INFRASTRUCTURE

DCBA has made infrastructure updates for many of our corporate clients. Our team members have worked in hospitals, manufacturing plants, garages, skyscrapers, laboratories and many other spaces. We’ve made an emergency generator installation, roof replacements, emergency snow removals, HVAC upgrades and replacements, and complex plumbing repairs.

Niall Black - J.M. Electrical Company Inc.Your team did an excellent job managing the schedule and the phasing in place, which is always a difficult thing to do in an occupied lab building. The project staff was excellent in their communication and in scheduling each phase with my foreman. Without their expertise, this job would not have gone so smoothly.

Jeffrey Ball - Former Vice President of Global Capital Projects for Genzyme | Sanofi CorporationSince the first introduction, I have called on DC Beane and Associates for a wide variety of critical projects. They range in size and complexity but they were all handled by creating a driven, focused, team environment. This environment was there for the client’s best interest and the project’s goal. This is the methodology that I embraced and counted on. I was touring a lab and office renovation project when it became clear that the project had been executed in such a way that the occupants were all very pleased with the orchestration, execution and most importantly communication. Lab renovations can be run efficiently from a cost, schedule and quality view and DC Beane did just that, but rarely in my experience do they go well in the eyes of the occupants. When I needed to take ownership of a site’s clinical manufacturing facility project, I called upon DC Beane. Their project team organized, refocused and executed this company critical project. The project sponsor gave a testimonial based on the professionalism, drive nature and results of the project.

Adam Dragolic - Bristol Myers SquibbDC Beane’s management of trade contractors, project controls, and client interface ensured successful delivery of the project in-line with BMS expectations and business objectives. DC Beane proved to be an asset to Bristol Myers Squibb for the project. They successfully applied sound construction principles during project implementation and effectively interacted with Bristol Myers Squibb. With this in mind, I strongly recommend DC Beane for General Contracting services in the eastern Massachusetts area.

Thomas Clifford - Clifford Hoffman AssociatesI was extremely impressed with the entire team from their project organization, detailed and precise meeting notes, project coordination, timely and thorough shop drawing submittals and knowledgeable field supervision. All five projects were completed on time and on budget. If there were any unforeseen conditions or delivery issues, the DC Beane team worked together to resolve it. Their team spirit made it and enjoyable project to be associated with. I would strongly recommend DC Beane and believe they have the technical expertise and experience to complete any project no matter the size or complexity in the life science field.

They acted autonomously, always pushing for what was in Genzyme’s best interest, and working hard to provide a true turnkey solution to our needs. I was extremely pleased with my first experience with you team and will pass on my impressions and strong endorsement to my clients here at Genzyme.
